I swear, you don't want that to happen. Another worst scenario probably, your under eye products could flaunt your dark circle or showing your fine lines. Well, in case of that i have found a product that making a buzz lately. Let me introduce you to Ben Nye Banana Powder

Banana, What?Nope it's not made from banana and it doesn't smell like one either.According to their website, Ben Nye is a family owned company dedicated to serving professionals throughout the worlds. Their products are manufactured in Los Angeles and used their broad film experiences to design their makeup line nearly 50 years ago. Wow, where have i been..

So, now we know that Ben Nye is a makeup line. What's a banana powder?Ben Nye are known for their powder products. One of their products was named The Luxury Powder. They launched it in a few shades: Banana, Beige Suede, Buff, and Cameo.

These silky-fine, mattifying translucent setting powders have this beautiful hint of color. Corrects surface redness and pink undertones, as well as neutralizes bluish under eye circles.

Said: Each one is specially formulated to absorb excess oil and soften the appearance of pores and texture. Enhance your fair-skinned, youthful glow with Cameo, balance out light to medium skin tones with Buff, and warm up tan to deeper skin tones with Beige Suede.

So much from one product? Let's take a look!

opinion

I personally think that this product is very great, especially for you who has a problem with under eye circle. If you haven't try this, you probably should. The price is quite affordable. It's $12 for 1,5 oz. In Indonesia you can have it around IDR140-300rb the prices are different depending on which online shop you are looking to.

I am applying a very thin layer of foundation too before using this banana. After applying banana powder, you need to set your face with loose powder or compact powder yet again. But, you only need a tinsy bit of it. Because the banana powder already did a marvelous job on the coverage thingy. I suggest you to wear this on a special occasion or maybe a night out event, because the glow it gives you create this very glowy polished look and i think it doesn't suit casual day occasion. But, once again, it's up to you :D

The
staying power is very good. Later that day, i took photos with my camera
phone and i still have that subtle glowing on my face. It's been hours and i don't see any fine lines, smudging or any grossness on my face! I'm one happy customer :D
